Safety glass, consisting of toughened (tempered) or laminated glass
In plain English
This category covers safety glass that has been either toughened or laminated. The items are separated based on whether they are shaped and sized specifically for use in vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft, or vessels. Toughened glass is divided into those suitable for such transport and those that are not. Similarly, laminated glass is split into two groups: one set designed for incorporation into these modes of transport and another set that is not.
